Leading digital pay-TV, StarTimes has promised football lovers of the live broadcast of the UEFA Euro 2020 across the continent through its TV network and its streaming mobile app, StarTimes ON.

StarTimes recently acquired the broadcast rights of ESPN, ESPN 2 and NBA.

The US channels broadcast several football championships that include, Dutch Eredivisie, English EFL, Turkish Süper Lig, Scottish SPFL or the US MLS. Although, Rumors had it that Messi and Ronaldo will retire at MLS.

Speaking on this development, The StarTimes Sports Director, Shi Maochu noted that “it is often said that Football is like a religion in Africa. And football worshippers have been able to identify StarTimes’ efforts as the media group that delivers high-quality football experience to its subscribers across the continent.

“This year, all football fans are looking forward to one event, the UEFA Euro 2020. And StarTimes will broadcast all matches live and in HD across the continent through its TV network as well as on its streaming mobile app, StarTimes ON.

According to Maochu “StarTimes commenced football operations on the continent in 2008 and at the end of 2019, StarTimes acquired The Emirates FA Cup, broadcasting rights until 2021.  We also have the airing rights of the three other high profile competitions which include; Coppa Italia, the Bundesliga, and the UEFA Europa League.

Maochu emphasized that “Acquiring highly popular European competitions didn’t keep StarTimes from investing in African local football which is often underrated and lacking financial support and media visibility. By combining both grassroots and elite events, StarTimes is able to offer high-value TV services.
